Effort isn't really the issue , don't ' put it in ' and you'll get hurt playing RL , quite simply we are disjointed , because we ARE disjointed , nobodies fault , just the way it is
A lot of that Batley team have been there quite a while , add in one of the best part time halfs ever in Brambani , and it was always going to be difficult
On to the Rams

| Quote Alan="Alan"I was pleasantly surprised at how this group performed in their first three home games of the Shield. A hastily arranged group came together exceptionally well - many of them playing in strange positions beside fellow strangers. Since then, we have dropped off and, on Sunday, came up against a committed, skilful team, who beat us fairly convincingly - simple as that.
In reality, in my opinion, we have no 'right' to expect anything from this group of players. All I ask is that they give everything they can - and I think they have been doing that.
We will be travelling to Dewsbury and Featherstone - more in hope than expectation - as it's still 'our' team, whoever is wearing the shirt!
As for Kieron, well he was the guy who turned around that dreadful start, and came within a couple of points of getting us into second place - so surely, he must have something going for him?'"
I concur

| Quote Harry Stottle="Harry Stottle" Purtill is not the man for the job for me, in this weeks match report he keeps moaning about attitude and how bad it is, is tgat not part of a coaches job to be a good psychologist as well as a tactician? Well he has prompted my attitude to give Dewsbury and Featherstone a miss.'"
Do you think Purtill selected the likes of Acton and Ryan Bailey on merit? No he didn't but he had to field a team of 'players'
The thing I like about Keiron is that, unlike Jukes, he is no ones yes man, if you don't perform you are out and someone else gets the shirt. No favouritism, No cliques, No nonsense.
I like him and his style of management. Everyone knows where they stand. Ask Bergal. He was dropped during this shield campaign,for the exact same reason Acton was previously dropped in the season. Fair and square policy.
Coaches who take no absolutely no shi!te, can however be placed on a collision course with club owners. There's the worry.

For what reason was Ridy dropped or AJ ? They are standard rules,break them and suffer the consequences. Nothing to do with being a yes man.
If your late for training,then your late for work. We really need to get away from this fictional stuff and start looking at reality.
I'm sick of hearing if we had won those first games we wouldn't have been in this position. Yet we had the strongest squad going into the Summer Bash, and blew that. Just remind me who the coach was?

I really do not think that affected the result- we were very much on the back foot by that point

Wow - Putil wins 16 out of 17 to give us a fighting chance and your singling HIM out.
Do you think he told Drew Hutchison that game management is to kick high into Toronto's defence whilst they are facing our own line in those closing mins? Rather than turn them around and make them work 100 yards up field?. Do me a favour. If Purtil had a full head of hair he would have lost it there and then that night.
These players that won so many games under him by the way were not Purtils choice either. Remember that. He worked with the card dealt to him and did a quite remarkable job.
It has earned him another shot as Leigh RL head coach for me.

I agree, you don’t coach players to panic and play daft rugby.
